Wow...this series just captivated my whole weekend. What birthday party for my son? My mind was constantly elsewhere when this book wasn't in front of me.
Let's start with the hero/heroine. When starting this book, the heroine came across as your typical smart, sassy fun girl with some background issues. The hero had the whole too hot to trot (pun intended) serious, brooding and sexy persona going for him.
Let's stop right here for a second. Let me tell you that I have already read all 3 in this series (and am itching to get at 3.5, but knew that I needed to get these reviews done to clear my head). I'm going to try and write this review using my opinions and thoughts just in reading IT and not the series, because my viewpoints and opinions on book 1 changed after I read the others.
So vroom-vroom, let's carry on.
So in my OPINION, I actually found the heroine irritating in this book. I felt that in her head she was very mature and "worldly" but her actions spoke of someone more immature and craving attention. Now, looking back on this (because it quickly changed in book 2), AND MAYBE BABY (ta-hee) I'm reading too much into this, but I actually found that in fact the heroine was quite immature, but for good reasons. See, she is learning to grow up in this book. She is a young heroine that didn't really have anyone raise her, she DOES crave attention because she never received it. It's actually kind of refreshing to read a character that acts her age of 19/20 years old and has mommy issues. Is it annoying, yes, but as the story grows and so do the charters you see it as her just being what she is and nothing more and it isn't annoying anymore. She grows up from this, this is the only area I found her to be showing her youth in her actions.
Let me just break it down for you real quick: Hero and heroine meet. Right off the bat they don't get along, but the hero is attached. He is the total possessive hero. However there are several breaks and a slow build up to their relationship. There is a HUGE misunderstanding but a TOTAL spell out to clear it all up. There is heart break, there is anxiety on what the characters are up to, there is DANGER, there is HOT SEXY SEX SEXYNESS. There is CLIMAX (literal...and...well, literal).
By the end of this book, you are CRAVING the second book. I loved the characters (well,MOST of them, Caroline and Landon are the exception, but it's supposed to be this way) and came to love other characters further down the line in the next book.
I totally recommend this book. If you love a hot hero that's possessive, charming, sweet and THOROUGH in the sack, then Trey is your man. And if you love your heroine to be honest with herself and be true to who she is and see things through, than you'll love Tyler. I can't recommend this series enough. I'm kind of wondering what I might be missing in reading the Lite versions and not the full length. One of the things I enjoyed most about this series was that there was always something going on. Even if it didn't pertain necessarily to the story as a whole, it was still enjoyable to read. I loved that most issues were stamped out very quickly and things, even the anxious parts, were still fun to read.

This is a MUST-READ Series!
Trey Sinclair always gets his way. That is, until he meets Tylar...
Atlanta attorney Trey Sinclair always gets what he wants whether it's in the courtroom, the bedroom, or on his family's horse farm. But when a bombshell is quite literally dropped into his lap, he can't help but be drawn to the feisty, independent, and strictly off limits Tylar Preston. But Trey never takes no for an answer and Tylar desperately tries not to break her own rules.
It's only a matter of time. They both know it.
What they don't expect is their intense and irresistible passion or the danger Tylar finds herself in because of a secret from her past.
This is a 4-Book Series which needs to be read in order: Shadows & Dreams, These Dreams, Shattered Dreams and Dream Lover
Shadows & Dreams - Book 1
My first encounter with Trey Sinclair wasn't a pleasant one to say the least.
I didn't realize he was taking time away from his law firm in Atlanta to oversee his family's business in Bristol Virginia over the summer. He was definitely an alpha who liked exerting his power . . . and his prowess.
And then there was all this weirdness going on there. Like something from a Hitchcock movie! I was there with baggage I didn't realize I had! Trey Sinclair turned out to be my protector . . . and so much more!
These Dreams - Book 2
Think "pink" Mr. Sinclair! There's a new girl in your orbit!
'Baby Love' finds Trey Sinclair and Tylar Preston, his fiancée, new parents to an adorable baby girl! But as their wedding day approaches, Tylar is once again haunted by recurring nightmares that leave her fearful for the safety of her baby. She struggles to unravel her past. Together they delve back into Tylar's childhood but not without cost. There are plenty of surprises along the way.
Shattered Dreams -Book 3
Life's About Love . . . And Life's About Pain . . . My life was about to get even better! Trey and I had a new home, complete with horses for me to train. Preston was growing leaps and bounds; and so happy to have a baby brother or sister on the way. Tristan and Gina had just welcomed their new son into the family. All was good. Until it wasn't. Sometimes life can deal a bad hand or two and you don't see it coming. I will always love Trey. Trey will always love me. But is that enough?
Dream Lover - Book 4
Being Tylar's best friend wasn't nearly as easy as I made it look. Keeping my secret past from Tristan was even harder. My name is Gina Valenti Hatton, and I'm an East Coast girl. I'm Italian, a bit outspoken, and to those who know me, I'm tough as nails.
I live a lie.
There's a part of me that is terrified that he'll find me. And now that I'm with Tristan Sinclair, all thoughts of my past are starting to fade. But Tristan knows I'm keeping something from him, and when my darkest fear shows up, my only hope is that we can survive my past.

A great storyline, a little old and 'grey'
